The part of the country you're from or currently living in determines what you call the game. A lot of players along the East Coast, as well as many southern states like North Carolina and Georgia, prefer «Cornhole.» Chicagoans and residents within the upper central portions of the United States like Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin prefer «Bags.»
It's a point of pride for many players, announcing their allegiance to specific gaming communities and serving as beacons for particular U.S. regions.
Here is a video of Bears oline Sam Mustipher sharing his thought with TE Cole Kmet. He makes a pretty compelling argument.
